      Hello dennis,

      In addition to MTF's excellent suggestions for Geneva I would recommend visiting the La Cite du Temps which is a small permanent museum dedicated to Swatch watches. It's a lot of fun and has every single Swatch watch since 1983. They have a bar and restaurant on the first 2 floors. And best of all the museum is free admission.

      For restaurants, I'd recommend Brasserie Lipp. Here's a few food pics from our Piaget visit in Oct 2008:

      Next to the Cornavin train station is a very fun hole-in-the-wall place for all you can eat sauteed shrimp and pomme frites. Take a look at DRMW's post on the PuristSPro TimeOut forum:

      And for a more upscale dining experience, try Brasserie du Parc des Eaux-Vives. Here's a link to the pics I posted on PuristSPro HoMe forum:

      I've been to Frankfurt on business trips several times in the past few years. I'd recommend visiting the Zeil which is the main shopping district in Frankfurt.

      Enjoy your trip and hope to see you post pics of your vacation!
